#189 What Every Midlife Woman Needs to Hear - “Forever Strong” by Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Book Review
May 29, 2025
🎙️ New Podcast Alert! 🌟
In this episode of Menopause Made Easy with Tanya, we’re diving into a powerful and empowering book that’s changing the way women think about aging: Forever Strong by Dr. Gabrielle Lyon.
Dr. Lyon’s core message is that muscle is the organ of longevity—and that women, especially in midlife, need to shift their focus from weight loss to strength, vitality, and function.
If you’ve been frustrated by fatigue, weight gain, or muscle loss during perimenopause or menopause, this episode is your permission slip to stop dieting and start building strength from the inside out.
🌱 In this episode we cover:
-
Why muscle loss, not fat gain, is the real enemy of aging
-
The importance of protein—and why midlife women need more of it
-
How to start resistance training safely and effectively in menopause
-
Why cardio isn’t enough, and how to balance your workouts for hormone health
-
The mindset shift every midlife woman needs to reclaim her strength and vitality
Whether you’re new to strength training or just need a boost of motivation, this episode will inspire you to rethink what’s possible for your body in this season of life.
